Must be not having an all-star break rest... the same as AsCab. Oh and the 100-105 degree heat.

(ps...did you see what happened when Fukodome batted leadoff in the 9th?? he went 1 for 2 with a run scored leading off innings tonight, started the 7 inning rally too batting 2nd. have I said where the guy needs to bat yet?)

Before the trip, I said I'd sign up for 3-4 so I'm not gonna be a hypocrite. After tomorrow though, we're done with all four good teams from the East and West and need to turn it up. I think 30 out of the final 51 games (86-76) gets it done in the Central as long as we go at least 6-6 against Detroit.

Didn't get to hear the game until we had scored. Started to feel personally responsible when TX started to score. But the blood pressure can't take many more of these games...the Tribe isn't the only one hanging by a thread!

Need to have someone else start the 9th to get one out. Then bring in Perez for the close. He can get you two quick outs every time. Just can't seem to get the 3rd. In the age of specialization, we now have a 4-out set-up man and a 2-out closer.

What the hell happened to Acab? The guy nearly single handedly cost the Tribe the game. I'm even willing to forgive the error, but getting picked at 1st? In that situation? He need to get his head out of his Durbin.

Great big Atta' Boys for Brantley, Kip and Chiz. Love the clutchiness.

Calling a Japanese pitcher a Jap is not the same as called Asdrubal a spic. They are so different, Not even in the same ball park, not even the same sport. Now if I were to say slant-eye instead of Jap, then that'll be close to spic.

And if you're upset about me calling a Japanese pitcher a "Jap"; why not the Native Americans & Chief Wahoo??? Do you protest every year on opening day? What are you smoking in your peace pipe?
